Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006050268A2] A method and kit for treating a disc that is leaking nucleus pulpous through at least one defect in the annulus fibrous. The method includes injecting a fibrin sealant into the disc to reduce at least a portion of the at least one defect, wherein the fibrin sealant injected into the disc comprises fibrinogen and an activating compound, wherein at least a portion of the fibrin forms after injection, with the proviso that a corticosteroid is absent from the fibrin sealant injected into the disc.
